Conductive Heat Transfer in Partially Saturated Gas Diffusion Layers with Evaporative Cooling

Sophia Haussener, Mirco Magnini, Felix N. Büchi

Heat transport is an important, though often neglected function of gas diffusion layers (GDLs) of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Thermal conductivity is a key property, especially in partially water saturated GDLs and when the phase change of wat ...
